25mm (across flat) Hexbase with 3mm hole

thingiverse

Human: Designed as a versatile spaceship base for wargaming enthusiasts... But hey, its just a generic 25mm across the flat hexagon design. Use it freely, experiment with it, and have fun within licensing terms (i.e. don't sell it for profit, but if you print a bunch for a friend and they happen to tip you, that's between you two... just don't make a business out of it). Print Settings Printer Brand: LulzBot Printer: TAZ 5 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: No Resolution: .2 down to .1 mm Infill: 30% to 80% (small enough to go 100%) Notes: These designs are straightforward and easy to print. Nothing too complex if your print settings for ABS or PLA are set up correctly. I printed in ABS, but they should work well with any 3D print material. Post-Printing If you use a raft, carefully remove it and sand or scrap sharp edges off How I Designed This Design Process My dad and I share a passion for wargaming. This base design idea came up, and I demonstrated how easy it is to create a quick and dirty game base with chambered surfaces using FreeCAD. I've left the FreeCAD formats (FreeCAD v. 0.16) for anyone who wants to modify them easily. As someone familiar with Solidworks and AutoCAD, I'm impressed by many features of this free 3D CAD program. Every wargamer needs a RepRap 3D printer (or one based on a RepRap). Even if you don't print miniatures, making bases is a breeze. Or printing someone else's design. As with all my designs, I've personally printed and tested them. They work as intended. This design has simple geometry that ensures it will work without any issues.
